3 Fonteinen Druifs are macerations of grape must and/or the co-fermentation of grape juice or wine with traditional lambic. There are no additions of juices, syrups or artificial sweeteners. The beer is bottled unfiltered and unpasteurized.
For this Druif, 3 Fonteinen macerated Riesling grapes from Harth & Harth, in Rheinhessen, Germany. Maceration took five months and they used two- and three-year old lambikken only. Afterwards, they blended with three-year old lambikken and very young lambikken for balance and bottle fermentation. In total, they used lambikken originating from four different barrels and ten different brews. The weighted average age of the blend is almost 22 months. The final fruit intensity is 500 grams of Riesling grapes per litre of finished Druif. This batch used 100% 3 Fonteinen brewed lambik.
